Bofaz script
Continuing on from Letae script, I'm going to explore the Bofaz script today. The Bofaz script is widely used throughout Orastim because of its adaptability. It originated with the Malalir for their language, Rudenz. It is an abugida system of symbols, meaning that it uses base consonant graphemes that are modified to produce vowel combinations after or before the consonant sound, as shown below. The charts below give a list of consonant vowel modifiers, as well as the full list of consonants and their normal vowel modifier- i.e. a vowel sound after the consonant sound. NOTE: These are the block forms of the Bofaz script, rather than the script form. Also, I've included the most common numeral system used in Orastim below the block list, that which also originated from the Malalir. The Bofaz script is the predominant writing system in the Malalir kingdoms, Noffian territories, Cimi and often used in Darknor and Rouns. I'll take you through an example to illustrate how to use the charts. The Rudenz word for yes, kagi, is as follows: lookup 'ka' and then lookup 'gi'. That's it! How about it, only two symbols used. Anyway, 'till next time. [important]Hope you can read the list well enough. If you can't, just click on them for a bigger version![/important] [five-star-rating]
